On May 10, 2013 the New York Attorney General Eric T. Schneiderman sent letters to Apple, Google/Motorola, Microsoft, and Samsung “seeking information about their efforts to protect customers from the rise in violent street crimes known as Apple Picking.”
The AG Schneiderman’s press released stated that “recent study… [read post]

On the show, Amy claimed that the business was hurt by “online bullies” who told lies about them.
After the show aired, the business received national attention and there… [read post]

Many jurisdictions, including Pennsylvania, follow the old common law rule that equity will not enjoin a libel. The First Amendment carries a presumption against prior restraints, but does not pose an absolute bar to injunctive relief in defamation actions. Still, most courts are extremely reluctant to grant equitable relief in actions for libel, slander, invasion of privacy, and related actions, due in no small part to the fact that money damages are usually adequate to compensate the plaintiff. … [read post]

According to the news story below, a judge in Montgomery County, Maryland has denied a defense attorney's request to research jurors online. Apparently, the judge finds the practice "totally inappropriate." The case in which the issue was raised resulted in a mistrial; therefore, the attorney did not appeal the judge's decision. Had he appealed, I think he would have won. To date, several states through court rulings have upheld the practice. In fact, in Missouri if an… [read post]
